I don't think you intented to agree with my statement so unequivocally. I believe that is exactly what the Bible teaches, but I don't believe you do. I stated, "The actions of these two representative men were not potential but actual." By that I mean, that just as the actions of Adam guaranteed the condemnation of all he represented; the actions of Christ guaranteed the justification and final glorification of all he represented. This occurred when they acted, not after those represented were born. You can't believe what you claim and believe that. If Jesus represented ALL MEN [that would be all in Adam] then all men would be justified. Jesus represented all in him, not all without exception.
Romans 5:18 Says that the free gift came upon ALL MEN unto justification of life. I didn't write that, Paul did.
Jesus claims to be the savior of the whole world, John 12:47.
This means that salvation has been provided for all. Whether all want it or not is another matter.
